I cannot get my Mozilla VPN to offer me the "Turn On VPN" switch. I'm in a loop of "you're logged in, now turn it on" then it keeps asking me to log in

I just signed up for the annual VPN coverage. I've signed in and have selected an area of the world to have my ip address associated. However, I now am in a loop.

I click the VPN logo on the top right of Firefox, I'm told to "Get started" by logging in.

I click "get started" and am told I've successfully already logged in.

I'm then told to click the "Turn VPN on" switch at the VPN logo.

I click the VPN logo and am told to log on, again. And again and again...

I've restared Firefox. I've restarted my Mac. Same thing again and again

Help?

Firefox version 152.0 : Firefox is continuously refreshing the page on a particular Website, in both Windows11 and Linux versions, making the site unusable ( unable to click anything ). The website loaded ok previously using Firefox and still loads ok using Chrome. Disabling extensions doesn't help, neither does deleting the cache and cookies. What changed and why? Is there anything else to try?

...even though the settings are exactly the same as the other laptops everyone in the group. Why are these bugs not disclosed ? One set of problems exchanged for another -- reminds me of Microsoft 'upgrades'. Whatever happened to the post about Addon icons spontaneously disappearing ? Another release bug ? And then there was the "Bookmarks vertical spacing not optimized", which promulgated a response soliciting me to, "...describe the problem...". Quite a unique experience. For us.

On my personal computer, I have a Profile for work and I was logged in via a Mozilla account using my work email address

I've recently set up a similar thing on my work computer. Signed in using Mozilla account. I have since noticed that on my personal computer it says "Account disconnected."

I'd like to sign in again and sync them so that I always see the same settings, shortcuts, open tabs etc on both computers. But if I sign in right now, will I lose the customizations I've made on the work computer? Which computer will it consider to be the "source" of the newly synced information?

So I replied to a post on the forum and I got Congrats on your first forum reply! from notifications@support.mozilla.org signed by kpapadea from Mozilla Support

So why? You see I have asked questions before..... I have replied before...... It occurs to me that if Mozilla is using Gmail as their sender then perhaps this is a good way for Google to extract information about me.

Perhaps i am somewhat cynical and Mozilla is just trying to be nice...... I have used Firefox it seems like forever.......from Netscape navigator through all the iterations to the present apparent converging on the layout/format with those other browsers. Is this going to be another Thunderbird moment where decisions made about the formatting just happened to follow Gmail & Outlook....well I no longer use Thunderbird, so perhaps its time to say goodbye to Firefox.

Helium, Ungoogled Chrome, Kagi.....time to start looking and testing

This experimental "Permission" program and repeated new downloads several times weekly, are driving me crazy. Mozilla started this without notification/explanation.. Had no idea why I received frequent annoying downloads and popups for Permissions. A little bit intrusive don't you think? Stop it. No description applies in this circumstance.

Turned on laptop this morning after arriving at work -- Addon icons gone and Addons not functioning. Why was this fault in 152.0.5 not disclosed before committing to upgrading the the browsers I support for distance consultants ? Click the Manage Extensions icon and there are no "gears" to click to "Pin to toolbar". This is terrible. I have a half hour until those folks arrive at work in Lost Angeles. Wow. I want to revert to a previous version. Where do I get them ? I am a DBA and NOT support for unstable browsers. FF consistently causing me time and money but "befehl ist befehl" and it is the browser we are ordered to use. I believe management has conflated Free and Functional/useful when selecting our S/W tools.

fonts.googleapis.com is locking up websites for 40 to 60 seconds per keystroke. I have researched this problem and tried everything suggested, but nothing works. Much of the solutions include changing the settings used on menus which no longer exist. accounts.google.com is doing the same thing. This is driving me nuts. Help!!! Latest version of Firefox. Windows 11 desktop computer.
